Most people say "even if its from the same breeder..."

I doubt you would need to worry.
Just look it over first.

You said it still has the yolk sac on it? I would only be worried about it catching something from BB. The new one is probably clean as a whistle.

As long as the breeder has some standards of hygene going on, you should be okay. If it's somebody who mixes animals, fails to wash hands between working with different sets of animals, things like that, there could be a little concern. Overall concerns should be very very small.

If it were me, I might keep it isolated more to be sure the new one is strong, healthy, and most importantly eating well, before mixing the two together...if they are compatable in size and seem to get along.
